MS would NEVER let you get your hands on the object code, OC is incredibly easy to reverse, it would be a liability. You could write it with winelib, but thats C. Also, how would calling to a MS DLL bind you to them? There are cross-OS programs all the time, usually open source, and none are bound t...

Re: will work?
will halo 2 be compatible? or can it be made compatible even if its for vista? No, the only thing that (I can think of) would prevent it from being XP is DirectX 10, which will be along way away. You could probaby eff around in EXE ,after dX10 is impl., to ignore which Operating system its runing.....
